02Scheme fit
Ideal system

Fangio two-high system focusing on versatile safeties capable of playing multiple roles, particularly strong in split-safety looks and covering deep zones.

Split-safetyStrong SafetyNickelbackBox safety
Best role

Year 1 could contribute as a rotational strong safety and core special teams player, with the ceiling to become an effective starting strong safety in a two-high scheme.

Wrong fit

A purely single-high safety scheme that demands consistent deep centerfield coverage rather than versatile box/slot capabilities.

His athletic profile and physical playstyle make him a strong fit for a scheme that prioritizes a strong, adaptable safety in a two-high system.

04The evaluation

Selected #47 overall in Round 2 of the 2019 NFL Draft by Seattle Seahawks out of Utah.
